well today was my first OB appt. I had an ultra sound too, everything looked good just like it should for baby at 7 weeks :) Which is very re-assuring!! My next appt is July 11th at 3pm. Hopefully we'll be able to pick up baby's heartbeat. That will be pretty cool. Got to see the heartbeat today which is always re-assuring!  Nixon still can't believe it, I think he's pretty stunned, at the same time I think neither one of us really wanted to get our hopes up too high because of my miscarriage last april, so we both didn't want to deal with the disappointment again, but so far so good for baby!! I don't think it's really sunk in yet, and most likely won't until I start to get BIG :) I already get bloated, but that's expected, I talked with the nurse today and since I'm older than the maternal age at my 20 week appt I have to get a 4D ultra sound, which seems really cool, yet scary, because they can pick up more birth defects that way and is standard the nurse told me for ALL women over age 35.. well way to make me feel old, and then of course she brings out the statistics of all the birth defects since I'll be 38 when I deliver, in all honesty I don't really care, this is the time, and this is the baby that Heavenly Father wanted us to have, he's going to make this baby PERFECT for US!! no matter what so getting the genetic testing doesn't really change my mind about things, and definitely would not help me prepare for the baby to be born. so it is what it is, I'm going to love it unconditionally anyway!  but I'm sure that everything will be just fine! :) Deep down inside I do hope for another girl though.. I don't know if I could handle another Niko.. man he's a creature! well that's it for today. I"ve actually been getting better at writing, so hopefully my entire pregnancy won't go by and you won't hear from me :) I have my appt with WIC on the 25th for me and the 30th for Niko, so hopefully we'll be able to get some assistance there :) Keep my fingers crossed since I'm done watching Armina, hopefully we can make things and ends meet.
